Optimal mainstream traffic flow control of large-scale motorway networks

The continuously increasing daily traffic congestions on motorway networks around the world call for innovative control measures that would drastically improve the current traffic conditions. Mainstream traffic flow control (MTFC) is proposed as a novel an ...

Accounting for traffic dynamics improves noise assessment: Experimental evidence

This paper compares three traffic representations for urban traffic noise assessment: (i) a coarse static calculation based on mean speeds and flow rates, (ii) a refined static calculation based on mean kinematics patterns, (iii) a whole dynamic noise esti ...

Update of the Swiss source model for road traffic noise

Hervé Lissek, François Aballéa, Pierre-Jean René

In Switzerland, the calculation method of road traffic noise is specified in the Ordonnance sur la protection contre le bruit (OPB) (Noise Protection Ordonnance (NPO)). This method is mainly based on observations that were realized in the 80s, and that are ...

Improving travel time estimates from inductive loop and toll collection data with dempster-shafer data fusion

Dempster-Shafer data fusion can enhance travel time estimation for motorists and traffic managers. In this paper, travel time data from inductive loop road sensors and toll collection stations are merged through Dempster-Shafer inference to generate an imp ...

SENSITIVITY OF RISK INDICATORS UNDER MOTORWAY TRAFFIC REGIMES CLUSTERED BY SELF-ORGANIZING MAP

André-Gilles Dumont, Edward Chung, Minh Hai Pham

In this paper, we present a method for determining motorway traffic regimes where the sensitivity of motorway crash risk indicators could be better understood. Motorway crashes are usually severe. If the crash risk could be monitored, it would be possible ...

Real-time merging traffic control with applications to toll plaza and work zone management

There is a number of highway transportation infrastructures where traffic flow arriving on a higher number of lanes must merge into a lower number of lanes within a limited space, e.g., merging highways, merging on-ramps, toll plazas, work zones. When the ...

Urban Dynamic Origin-Destination Matrices Estimation

André-Gilles Dumont, Edward Chung, Emmanuel Bert

The aim of this paper is to explore a new approach to obtain better traffic demand (Origin-Destination, OD matrices) for dense urban networks. From reviewing existing methods, from static to dynamic OD matrix evaluation, possible deficiencies in the approa ...

Approach for Dynamic Origin-Destination Matrices Estimation in Urban Context

André-Gilles Dumont, Edward Chung, Emmanuel Bert

The aim of this paper is to explore a new approach to obtain better traffic demand (Origin-Destination, OD matrices) in dense urban networks. From reviewing actual methods, for static and dynamic OD matrix evaluation, possible deficiencies in the approach ...

ANALYZING AND COMPARING TRAFFIC NETWORK CONDITIONS WITH A QUALITY TOOL BASED ON FLOATING CAR AND STATIONARY DATA

Cities with medium to high traffic volumes are expected to keep the traffic rolling in a most efficient way. Accidents, construction sites or large events are counteracting this effort. In addition, cities are facing the fact that traffic signal plans conf ...
